Hello, thank you for taking the time to check out my artpal, I hope you enjoy my art, it is my pleasure to share it with you.

I am a nature loving Buddhist artist still struggling to see the forest for the trees. I am close to 41 yrs of age, grew up in NJ, lived in SF for 10 years and I have been making artwork my whole life. I create many things but I paint birds because I find it enjoyable and I find them fascinating. In the future I will also paint fish, and exotic insects. If you have requests I would love to hear them.

Bird Paintings: All paintings are done with acrylic on canvas or wooden panels of my own construction. The birds were painted from reference but the environments are from my imagination and they extend on to the sides of the canvas.

Spirit Huts: I have lived in many apartments and in some of them I have felt the presence of the spirits. At the time I had wished I could move to allow them their space, but I could not due to financial limitations on my part. I then realized that these spirits were also stuck inhabiting the same space because of some type of restriction upon them as well. So I sought to create them a space so that we could both live in peace, hence my "spirit huts" or ghost homes.
